Patient Services

The Los Angeles County Department of Health Services is an integrated system of health centers, community clinics and hospitals that offer you and your loved ones the care you need to stay well. This includes primary care, like check-ups and immunizations, as well as the specialty care you need to treat a serious illness or a chronic disease. Specialty services can be provided in both outpatient and inpatient settings. Our goal is to be your primary care medical home, a place where you go for regular care by a team of health professionals where services are coordinated.

What services can I get at DHS?

DHS provides primary care services, such as basic health care traditionally provided by doctors trained in family practice, pediatric, internal medicine and gynecology. DHS also provides specialty care services, which is specialized health care provided by physicians whose training is focused primarily in a specific field, such as neurology, cardiology, rheumatology, dermatology, oncology, orthopedics, ophthalmology and other specialized fields.

If you are new to the DHS healthcare system, the best place to start is to visit a DHS clinic near you and select it as your medical home. When you choose a medical home, you will always go to that clinic and see the same team of health professionals when you need care. They will have your medical records and help you get the care you need. Whether you go to the hospital or to the specialist, all of your care is coordinated through your medical home.
